In the complicated environment of Biggie’s house, romance and connection take centre stage. The housemates’ perspectives on love and relationships have become a hot topic, revealing not just their hearts but also their strategies. From flirty exchanges to deep musings on loyalty and trust, one thing’s clear—love under Biggie’s roof is anything but simple. Here’s a closer look at how each housemate’s journey in love began and how they’re navigating it now.
Abobo: authentic or strategic? 🤔💞
Abobo is all about keeping it real in relationships, but can true love bloom in Biggie’s house, where every move might be strategic? With whispers about early ships being more about the game than the heart, we’re watching to see if Abobo will take it slow or dive headfirst into romance.
Ash-Ley and Sweet Guluva: Just a phase? 💃🏽✨
Ash-Ley Ogle lives for the thrill of the talking stage but quickly gets bored. Enter Sweet Guluva, whose charm has us wondering – are those sparks we see, or is it just playful banter? Either way, the chemistry between these two has everyone talking (and investigating).
Watch Ash-Ley Ogle in her flirting element:
Beekay: A wholesome gent ready for love 🥰
Beekay isn’t holding back—he’s single, ready to mingle, and eager to be someone’s “breakfast, lunch, and dinner.” With his charm and broad shoulders, he’s quickly becoming the go-to guy for emotional support and maybe even more.
Bonni Bee: Spiritually guided but awkwardly crushing 🙏🏽😅
Bonni Bee believes in being open to the possibilities of love and trusts her spiritual instincts to guide her choices. But there’s a hiccup – her crush seems to have eyes for someone else. Awkward much? On her list of housemates that have entered her eye are Savage, Sipha Lee, Swiss, and Sweet Guluva. Is 's' her favourite alphabet??
Ezra: The resident flirt 😎💔
Ezra calls himself a “catch and release” kind of guy—until he finds “the one.” For now, he’s loving the attention and making the most of his time in the house as the ultimate flirt. Wait until he finds out he is on top of Mata's list!
Gugu: The “widowed” romantic 😢❤️
After declaring herself “widowed” from relationships, Gugu is hoping her luck will change in the house. She’s ready to give her all to the right person – if they come along. She is "widowed" because all her relationships keeping dying on her. 💀
Jojo: Love-rrauma survivor 💔✨
A pastor’s kid who “really loves boys,” Jojo isn’t naive about love. With past relationship trauma weighing her down, she’s treading carefully. But Savage’s attempts to slide into her DMs might just complicate things further.
Kay B: Honest but Complicated 😬💌
Kay B values honesty and communication, but her love life is far from simple. While she’s in a relationship outside the house, her dynamic with Savage is creating tension—and plenty of drama.
Watch Kay B's latest tension with Savage:
Luzuko: Love beyond material things 🌍💕
Luzuko believes love is all about reciprocity and connection. He’s yet to make a strong connection in the house, but he’s learning the little details – like Ash-Ley Ogle’s dislike of bad breath and shoes. Could this knowledge come in handy?
Mand Hagan: Testing the waters 👀💏
Mandy Hagan sees her time in the house as a relationship test for herself and her partner outside. But with Luzuko potentially catching her eye, will her loyalty stand the test of time?
Mata: Secret crushes and open hearts 😍🤫
With a secret crush on someone outside the house, Mata isn’t actively looking for love. But who says she can’t enjoy some eye candy while she’s here? Right now, her order is Ezra, Sipha Lee and Luzuko.
Melino: The fun-loving single 🎉💃🏽
Melino, like Wakanda, has been single FOREVER! We are not sure where he stands now in the house. What we know for sure is that he is here for a good time because who else would pull a Faf de Klerk at a pool party? Those Mzansi swimming undies were entertaining.
Mshini: Committed but curious 🤔👫
Mshini is in a relationship outside the house, but her growing bond with Muzi-TheMbuzi is turning heads. Matching outfits, anyone? Could it be more than just teamwork?
Nsuku: Struggling to mingle 😅💖
Nsuku might be single, but she’s not mingling easily. With connections forming with Beekay and Muzi-TheMbuzi, will she find love, or will she stick to flying solo?
Watch housemates share secrets:
Philile: Wife material in the making 💍🌟
Philile is all about mutual respect and understanding in love. Her “wife material” vibes in the house are unmistakable, and we’re betting she won’t stay single for long.
Savage: A lover with drama on the side 🌪️❤️
Savage describes himself as a respectful and romantic lover, but his name seems to follow him into chaos. With Kay B, Bonni Bee, and Jojo all in the mix, it’s safe to say Savage is at the centre of Biggie’s love drama.
Sipha Lee: All about the money 💸😏
Sipha Lee isn’t in the house for love – he’s here to win the cash. But his mysterious knowledge of the female anatomy has everyone wondering – what’s his secret? He is also on Mata and Bonni Bee's radar. 👀
Sweet Guluva: Learning balance 💡💞
Sweet Guluva believes relationships are about balance and growth. With kiss conversations and time shared with Ash-Ley Ogle, could he be finding his balance in Biggie’s house?
Tyrone: Distustingly single 💔😥
Tyrone “disgustingly single” and gets triggered by relationship questions. He is clear about the team he plays for, and might just be the love advisor we never thought we needed this season with all that personality and opinions.
Uyanda: Self-awareness first 🧘🏽♂️💡
For Uyanda, love starts with self-awareness and financial stability. Biggie’s house offers the perfect opportunity for personal growth—will love find him in the process?
With so many perspectives on love and relationships, Biggie’s house is proving to be the place to be for emotions, strategies, and sparks. Who will find lasting connections, and who’s in it for the game? Stick around – we’re here for the drama! 🎬✨
